One of the best benefits associated with the Platinum AmEx card is that you have access to Delta, Continental, and American lounges – simply show your card along with a ticket for travel (on the relevant airline) for that day, along with a government-issued ID – and you’re in.  American Express just announced that US Airways has been added to the list of participating airlines, effective immediately.  See details @ AmEx Plat website.

The Plat AmEx sports an annual fee that’s not for the faint of heart ($450), but for frequent travelers, the benefits offered by the card are impressive.

Dan at Dan’s Deals covers the card’s benefits – as well as a 25K points offer for new Plat AmEx cardholders – in this recent post:  AMEX Platinum – The Grandaddy of Credit Cards!
